    prisoners, capships, and fighters should be saved

    Bandit LOAF, My dictionary Webster's New Third International Dictionary gives several definitions for the word "war". It doesn't limit war to being only "armed conflict". Actually I did read his book. Haesslich, Many wars throughout history have been often violent, I agree. I...

    prisoners, capships, and fighters should be saved

    Haesslich, 1) Ok, so the Kilrathi destroy all the intelligence information on the ship. That's fine, there'll be other things to salvage like the rest of the ship such as its engines, armor, weapons, etc. 3) The word war means conflict, period. If two masses of people have a conflict of...

    Your own ideas for weapons/equipment for WC?

    What is so illogical about my ideas? I've stated how they could be done. You have yet to state how they can't be done.

    prisoners, capships, and fighters should be saved

    Expendable, it wouldn't be for little gain. It would be for tremendous gain as stated in the reasons Joshua & I listed. And remember, there would be many medals of very high honor given out for capturing instead of killing opposing prisoners, fighters, and capships. Campaigns and missions...

    Your own ideas for weapons/equipment for WC?

    Actually, the paint would freeze on the windshields given the vast coldness of space. The trick is to heat the paint in the ammo bay so that when it is fired out it's still a liquid, then after it impacts the windshield it freezes on the windshield. I would be willing to batter down the...

    prisoners, capships, and fighters should be saved

    Revenant, I believe Joshua and I adequately stated reasons why it's much smarter to capture rather than kill prisoners, fighters, & capships. And you're mistaken about the word "war". The word war does not mean lethal conflict. It just means conflict, period. A war could be nothing more...

    Your own ideas for weapons/equipment for WC?

    I'd like to see a towing adapter be for new WC games. Like on a fighter, the towing adapter could fire the towing cable at an object to tow it. This way, I could use an Arrow, or an Avenger, or whatever to tow another fighter. The towing adapter would use a gripper claw to grab hold of the...

    Your own ideas for weapons/equipment for WC?

    I'd like to see a paintgun be placed on fighters. It would be used to blind fighter canopies. This way the fighter pilots wouldn't be able to see out. They'd have to call for someone to pick them up or run the risk of flying blindly through asteroids back to their capship to get their paint...

    Anyone good with dumbfires?

    I've had good luck with dumbfires. On average, my best has been 3 out of 5 fighters.

    prisoners, capships, and fighters should be saved

    Sometimes shields get battered down to 0. I'd like the (crystal) to reduce the energy attacks by half. As for missiles, I'll just evade them. Or if there's a shortage on crystal armor and there's plenty of diamond armor, I suppose I could use my shields to fend off energy attacks and use my...

    prisoners, capships, and fighters should be saved

    No, I'm not referring to those armors from BattleTech. If you want to use BattleTech as an example, it would be like taking standard BattleTech armor and only using the aligned crystal armor portion of the standard armor for crystal armor and only using the diamond armor portion of the standard...

    prisoners, capships, and fighters should be saved

    There's only one way this discussion is going to get solved. Looks like we gotta get Origins or whoever to make a new WC game with all the stuff we've talked about. I also would like to see some alternative armor types be available in the game. One could be crystal armor -- that armor would...

    In WC1, multiple Tiger's Claw fighters launch mission

    WC1, multiple Tiger's Claw fighters launch mission? In WC1 for the Super Nintendo, there's a mission in which that Halcyon guy says the Tiger's Claw is under attack (I think the Tiger's Claw jumped out of hyperspace and got ambushed by Kilrathi fighters or something like that). The player...

    prisoners, capships, and fighters should be saved

    Erkle, it's most likely your fighter's energy weapons would stop firing for awhile to recharge and while they're recharging, I would have blinded your fighter. So you wouldn't get to score your kill.

    prisoners, capships, and fighters should be saved

    Joshua, another good thing captured fighters/captured capships are good for is surprise attacks against opposing forces - the opposing forces don't suspect one of their own will attack them so they don't fire on them. You can take a captured capship/fighter and move it right next to an opposing...

    prisoners, capships, and fighters should be saved

    I wanna see a new WC game in which the player has to keep track of missiles & fuel. I think super polymers would be fun against capship turrets. It would be funny if the capship couldn't train its turrets onto objects to fire at them. Kilrathi captain says "All turrets, train on Confed...

    Willing to trade WC games for a copy of HMAero

    HMAero is a product that Rick Raisley of http://www.heavymetalpro.com makes. Unfortunately I can't find my copy of Wing Commander 1 for the SNES so I can only trade WCIII & WCIV.

    Willing to trade WC games for a copy of HMAero

    I have a copy of Wing Commander I for the Super Nintendo, a copy of Wing Commander III: Heart of the Tiger for Sony PlayStation and a copy of Wing Commander IV: The Price of Freedom. I am willing to trade all of these for a brand new copy of HMAero. http://www.heavymetalpro.com
